Is illness among the excuses that permit combining prayers?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
It is said that a sick woman in the hospital had the time for the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers arrive, so she combined them, praying Maghrib in three rak'ahs and 'Isha' in four rak'ahs. Is her prayer valid?

Answer:
Yes, if it is difficult for her to pray each obligatory prayer in its own time, she is permitted to combine them. Illness that makes it difficult for the sick person to pray each prayer in its time is among the excuses that permit combining. Yes.
